BLUEGOLDONLINE.COM NOV. 15, 2025 27 back Mark Zackery IV played important roles opposite of sophomore cornerback Leonard Moore. "I think every game is important," Smith said. "Not just because we're playing Navy this week. You don't take any team lightly. You don't put any more emphasis on another team. Each and every week, it's the same thing. Go out there and win and achieve team glory." Alabama won 45 games in Smith's four seasons on the roster. That in- cluded a 14-2 record in November for the Crimson Tide. The Fighting Irish are now two wins into a five-game slate in November. "The best teams win in November," Smith said. "We believe that we're one of the best teams in the country. We're going to continue to prove that. We've just got to stay locked in each and every day, each and every practice, each and every game." — Tyler James NOTRE DAME INDIVIDUAL STATISTICS Rushing Att.
